Born in Madrid Spain, David has spent the last decade working as an artist both in education and professional practice. His work has consistently been an entanglement between experimental music and the visual arts. The outcome of which is a series of collaborations and solo exhibitions that are cross-disciplinary and interactive.

Multiplexer is seeking artists, videographers, media archivists, designers and anyone with a deep interest in video beyond the scope of the traditional narrative, pictorial, and aesthetic productions and projects already highly visible and represented by mainstream media and film.

The curatorial efforts will focus on exhibiting work that can, on its own and without the need for elaborate installation, be understood as exploratory in the medium and has the capacity to bring about critical thoughts and ideas.

Archival, historical, contemporary, documentary and just about any category conceivable will be considered.

About MultiplexerMultiplexer Is a new art space Downtown in the City of Las Vegas. The exhibits will focus on the potential of video as a medium, and away from the over explored, web-based sensationalism, corporate media and Hollywood film industry now dominant. The space exhibits work that crosses the threshold from visual language to relevant and poignant explorations in a wide variety of subjects and motifs.

The interest in video goes beyond video artwork. Multiplexer will also focus on the detritus and artifacts of video technology and its relationships to changes and shifts in history, from analog to digital, broadcasts, video art and home videos. From the anthropological and scientific, to the exploratory and experimental; all genres and categories of video work will be considered for exhibition.

The art space is located in downtown Las Vegas two blocks from the 12 million LED screen Viva Vision, on Fremont Street, both a technological inspiration and an unsettling reminder of the power media wields.
